The "Euro Truck Simulator"-series Thread.

Yeah, that looks like it. Now I'm on top of the economy rankings because I made the mistake of entering fuel consumption in L/100 km for my first logged trip, which the system interpreted as 31.2 L over 1380 km
The real figure is probably closer to 35 L/100 km for all my trips.

Is there any way you could edit/delete my first trip from the log? By my calculations, I used about 431 liters of diesel on that trip.

I'm getting pretty impatient to try out VTC but, have to wait for the Multiplayer update... @Dean Is it ok if I add comoleted jobs that I complete with my multiplayer profile offline?

Also, why are the credits solid numbers like €3000 rather than €2952 or something?

Also, in the report forms, should we include things like truck repairs? Or just leave that.

@Leggy1 Does the Russian map mod that you were using still work after all the recent updates? I haven't played for about a month but will start again tomorrow.👍

As far as I know, I can't go in and edit the trip once it's been accepted. What we can do, is you simply adding the missing fuel on your next trip. 👍

I can't see any problems in that. 👍

After each trip I have to enter a number between -1000 and +1000, and I simply haven't figured out how to calculate a trip properly yet.

If it's because of a crash, yes. If it's simply from driving (with no accidents), then you can include it in the notes in the logbook.

Yes it does, there is a new version, 1.3. I have it working with Promods 1.7 on ETS2 1.12

Edit: the car just appeared like this for some reason

 

[Dean]

Oh @Leggy1, is it on purpose you've submitted the same trip(s) 16 times on MyVTC?

Haha I kept trying to submit the trip but every time it said there was an error and it didn't work At least it is there now

Is it possible to accept just one? I only did one trip.

--All sorted now 👍

 

[Dean]

It's official, the v0.1.0.8.3 of MP is now released, so version 1.12 of ETS is now finally supported for online.

Great... Right when I start my working shift and won't be home for another 12 hours.

So, are you just giving €1000 per 1000Km or something?

On the VTC, yes, I still haven't figured out how to calculate trips properly. If anyone knows a way though, please let me know.

Is it to do with distance and cargo weights? It would be handy if there was an explanation somewhere.

 

[TripleA5]

how do you get the multiplayer? is it a mod?

 

[ProjectWHaT]

Yes, you go to their website, download the mod, follow the install steps, launch multiplayer mod and you're done.

 

[samurai8juice]

So its 1000 Euros per trip on the VTC? Why can't we input the money we earned? Or is it just trying to be realistic?

I was thinking the same exact thing

I haven't found any explanation yet...

In theory we could divide, but the thing is, I don't know what the most you can get for a job is. If we could figure that out, -- let's just say it's €250000 for this example -- that could equal €1000 on the VTC, which means each payout must (or could in this case) be divided with 250. I'm not sure there's a job worth €250K, but if anyone knows the highest payout please let me know.

 

[Leggy1]

@Dean Perhaps the credits could be distance - fuel used. So 1 km = 1 Euro and 1 Litre = 1 Euro

I think the only way to get above a 150K payout is with mods. Even with Promods and the Russia expansion the max payout is 190-200K for me, for a 3800km trip.

Edit- There are now achievements on Steam for ETS2.

 

[Dean]

Now that I think about it, it might be possible to give credits more than one time, but only €1000 per time. Well, then there's really no issue... So, if you all just put in how much cash you made for the job in the notes, that'd be great.

 

[Kamuifanboy]

I'm surprised that it doesn't let you put in exact numbers. Only thousands. Seems strange to me.

Currently downloading that Multiplayer and promods updates! Hopefully I'll have some time to get on on Saturday!

 

[samurai8juice]

@Dean did you get my tour?

 

[Dean]

It actually does, I just misunderstood what it said... So, zero issues after all. 👍

@Dean did you get my tour?

It wouldn't seem so, no.

There's a bit of fallout surrounding the new forced speed-limiter on multiplayer...

Rammers are still ramming, more people are cutting across junctions, and you now never encounter anyone on the road because everyone's doing 55mph/90kph.

 

[ProjectWHaT]

I'm so happy they updated multiplayer. I don't mind the limiter that much, but it's a bit too slow. I mean, it's slower than most speed limits. (110 km/h)

It's funny that the people that are angry at the speed limiter are the ones that caused the limiter to be enforced in the first place

I like it, I've only been hit once today 👍

 

[samurai8juice]

There we go, I submitted it, and it says I submitted it.

 

[Cherokee]

In online you can't use mods, right?

Correct. You cannot. Also, the custom plates don't really work.

So, should we just tell you the amount of money that we made then?

 

[Dean]

Exactly, but remember to include fuel and damage costs too.

Time for a screenshot. It's been a big week in ETS world. Promods 1.71 is just beautiful but now I'm considering adding Poland rebuilding and the Russia map as they are all compatible. Jazzycat has also updated his railway cargo and trailers and cargo packs. Its a great time to be a truck simmer

 

[Cherokee]

How is the promods map? I am pretty happy with the last TSM, os are they compatible togheter?
